Problems solved by technology

Due to the physical and chemical properties of the melt and the thermal conductivity of the crystal, the GGG crystal is prone to a natural conversion of the solid-liquid interface from convex to flat during the growth process, and this conversion process of the solid-liquid interface is often accompanied by strong liquid flow. and temperature changes, resulting in deterioration of the internal quality of the crystal, or even cracking
Although it is possible to explore a process condition to avoid the occurrence of this process and keep the crystal growing on the slightly convex interface, there is still a certain core stress in the central part of the crystal grown on the slightly convex interface, and the inhomogeneous solute distribution causes Inhomogeneity of lattice constant
Thus affecting the optical quality of the epitaxial substrate

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a gadolinium gallium garnet(GGG)planar interface crystal, belonging to the optical crystal technical field. The method comprises the following steps that: CaO and / or MgO and ZrO2 are doped in a raw material formula of the GGG crystal and a manual control interface converting technology method is used so that the planar interface doped large lattice parameter GGG crystal with good stress and internal quality is grown, The calcium-magnesium-zirconium doped large lattice parameter GGG planar interface crystal with a diameter more than 2 inches and a length more than 120 millimeters is grown by the method. The crystal has good internal quality, even stress, and zero dislocation, does not observe any scattering particle under the He-Ne light, has a lattice parameter of between 12.383 and 12.620, and the change in the crystal head and tail lattice parameters is within 10<-2>. The method is particularly suitable for the large lattice parameter (Ca, Mg and Zr):GGG crystal growth field of an epitaxial substrate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical crystal, in particular to the technical field of a doped GGG crystal used for a magneto-optical device and a magnetic bubble domain storage device. Background technique [0002] Bismuth-doped and other doped iron-like garnet (Bi:RIG) epitaxial single crystal thin film, because it has larger lattice constant, low saturation magnetic field, and good temperature stability than traditional yttrium-iron garnet (YIG) It is considered to be the best magneto-optical material currently used in optical communication technology. However, due to the increase of its lattice constant (generally in the above), the pure gadolinium gallium garnet (GGG) crystal as the epitaxial substrate material of the traditional YIG single crystal thin film has a small lattice constant It is no longer suitable for the requirements of the epitaxial substrate of the iron-like garnet single crystal thin film. The calcium-magnesium-zirconium-doped...
